Through its social media channels, FIFA confirmed Shakira, BTS, and Madonna as the performers for the first halftime show of the 2026 World Cup.
The show will also feature Chris Martin (Coldplay) as curator, with production by Global Citizen.
It is worth noting that the World Cup halftime show will be a benefit event, as it will raise funds for FIFA’s Global Citizen Education Fund, which seeks to improve access to quality education and soccer for children around the world.
“Throughout the tournament, $1 from every ticket sold for FIFA World Cup 2026™ matches will be donated to the Fund,” FIFA states.
With the artists confirmed, all that remains is to wait for the two finalists who will meet at New York – New Jersey Stadium on July 19 to decide the next world champion.
